Oh Vista is far, far worse than Windows ME
Oh how wrong you are. I would do some research but you seem to think OSX is "the king of all OS's"

The cathedral argument seems to be ages old [haha] and a misconception.
myth - not true.
Can we end the glass argument? It's a solid, specifically an amorphous solid.
Fair enough - I stand corrected. This wasn't something I had heard on the net but something I had been educated by my chemistry/physics teacher when at school. It just proves you shouldn't pay attention to everything you're taught.![]()

There was never an argument, it was educational for some of us - it was an interesting bit of information. I'd sooner shut you up than that conversation.![]()
Hello LordSplodge, what are your reasons behind your above statement?![]()
Sure it was educational but it was starting to turn into one of OCUK's circular debates. The MOT one was far more annoying than the glass one anyway.
Free Speech anyway, Mr Don![]()

Hello LordSplodge, if you understand how the User Account Control actually works and it's purpose, you retract your above statement.
I'd add the fact that explorer can still crash, and Windows won't handle it gracefully. FFS my Win2k workstation at work handles explorer crashes better.
Still, at least Minesweeper has been upgraded![]()

handles driver crashes excellently, and the only time I've gotten explorer to freeze it was fixed by ending explorer process then just starting it as a new task in task manager.
Yes thats how I handle explorer crashes/freezes on Win2k at work. The other day I backed up my Steam games onto some cheap DVDs I bought ages ago and stuck them in my new Vista lappy. Explorer went mental - couldn't kill it, couldn't restart it, couldn't even restart the laptop - ended up having to do a hard restart. Should be able to handle a dodgy DVD better than that.
And on the off chance Fire Wizard is actually Steve Ballmer, are Microsoft ever going to give us an equivalent of "kill -9" or "rm -f"? I find it so frustrating at work not being able to delete files because they're locked by a process, and not being able to kill that process.
As nice as it would be if it was integrated, I used Unlocker to do that - It adds the option to the right click menu for a file.And on the off chance Fire Wizard is actually Steve Ballmer, are Microsoft ever going to give us an equivalent of "kill -9" or "rm -f"?
